Black Mold Remediation in Atlanta, Marietta, Alpharetta, Roswell, Smyrna, Sandy Springs & Elsewhere in North Georgia

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommend black mold remediation as a prudent course of action to help avoid potential respiratory problems. While the CDC emphasizes that there is no proven link between the presence of black mold and pulmonary hemorrhage or memory loss, a 2004 study by the Institute of Medicine revealed a link between exposure to mold’s mycotoxins and respiratory tract problems, including coughing, wheezing, exacerbated symptoms in asthma patients and hypersensitivity to lung tissue inflammation (pneumonitis).

If you suspect your home or commercial building might be infested by mold, NoMoldAtlanta can help you comply with the CDC’s recommendation for a common-sense approach to black mold remediation. How can you tell if mold has become a problem? It’s not always as simple as looking for it. Like all mold, black mold – also known as stachybotrys chartarum or S. atra – needs moisture to thrive, and it does not always colonize visible areas. Mold that spreads in unseen places like basements, attics, crawlspaces, behind walls or on the back of wallpaper can cause the following conditions and black mold symptoms, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA):

• Mucous membrane irritation
• Skin rash
• Nausea
• Immune system suppression
• Acute or chronic liver damage
• Acute or chronic central nervous system damage
• Endocrine (glandular) effects
• Some forms of cancer
